Girls on Top (album)

Girls on Top is the fifth Korean studio album by South Korean singer BoA, released on June 24, 2005 by her native label SM Entertainment.[1] Under the repackaged title Moto, the album was re-released on August 25, 2005 to promote the titular track, while including a previous unreleased track, and later on March 26, 2008 in Japan as a special edition (along with her previous Korean release My Name).[2][3][4] Peaking at number three on the monthly domestic Music Industry Association of Korea ranking list, Girls on Top was a commercial success, having sold a total of 115,000 copies in 2005.[5][6] It was, at the time, the singer's last release in her native country for over five years, until the release of Hurricane Venus in August 2010.
